It's a great start! However, I'd try to stay a little more color consistent - the red in the headers stands out and isn't found anywhere in the design. Also, borders are always a good idea. Part of the good points of website design is seamlessly integrating content and design. By using borders, it stands out kind of awkwardly and takes away from the design.

I have a suggestion. On the banner - create a new layer, set it to "lighten" and use some large feathered round brushes with some lighter colors to add some colorful tints and shades. You could then incorporate this into the stylesheet coding with your content.

Overall, great start.

Edit: About submitting it, I would take some of what I suggested into account before submitting it to cB.
